  2. 1. Multivariate Exploration and Processing of Sensor Data-applications with multidimensional sensor systems

    Author : Henrik Petersson; Martin Holmberg; Johan Trygg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical sensor; Pattern recognition; sensor selcection; Combustion monitoring; Vector Classification; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : A sensor is a device that transforms a physical, chemical, or biological stimulus into a readable signal. The integral part that sensors make in modern technology is considerable and many are those trying to take the development of sensor technology further. READ MORE

  4. 2. Battery Health Estimation in Electric Vehicles

    Author : Verena Klass; Göran Lindbergh; Mårten Behm; Anna Stefanopoulou; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lithium-ion battery; state-of-health; electric vehicle; support vector machine; resistance; capacity; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : For the broad commercial success of electric vehicles (EVs), it is essential to deeply understand how batteries behave in this challenging application. This thesis has therefore been focused on studying automotive lithium-ion batteries in respect of their performance under EV operation. READ MORE

  5. 3. Towards Mosquitocides for Prevention of Vector-Borne Infectious Diseases : discovery and Development of Acetylcholinesterase 1 Inhibitors

    Author : Sofie Knutsson; Anna Linusson; Fredrik Almqvist; Andreas Larsson; Ulf Nilsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mosquito; vector-borne diseases; vector control; insecticide; acetylcholinesterase; medicinal chemistry; high-throughput screening; organic synthesis; homology modeling; structure activity relationship; structure selectivity relationship; datorlingvistik; computational linguistics; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : Diseases such as malaria and dengue impose great economic burdens and are a serious threat to public health, with young children being among the worst affected. These diseases are transmitted by mosquitoes, also called disease vectors, which are able to transmit both parasitic and viral infections. READ MORE

  6. 4. Condensation of DNA for Gene Delivery: Studies on Vector-Nucleic Acid Interactions and Transfection Efficiency

    Author : Kristina Fant; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; dendrimer; endocytosis; uptake; gene delivery; optical spectroscopy; structure-activity relationship; DNA; cell-penetrating peptide;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the delivery of nucleic acids into cells and tissues with the aim to change or correct gene expression. The field of gene delivery has the ultimate goal of producing genetic drugs for clinical applications, and the activity in this area is intense although so far the use is limited to research purposes.

  7. 5. Interactions of the Cell-Penetrating Peptide Penetratin with Model Membranes and Live Cells

    Author : Daniel Persson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; antisense; antennapedia homeodomain; delivery vector; cell-penetrating peptide; protein transduction; uptake; membrane translocation; penetratin; confocal microscopy; vesicle;

    Abstract : The delivery of large, hydrophilic molecules, such as proteins and oligonucleotides, to the cytoplasm and nucleus of cells is problematic due to their generally low plasma membrane permeability. With the identification of a number of cell-penetrating peptides, capable of mediating non-endocytotic, intracellular delivery of macromolecular cargos, this obstacle now seems surmountable. READ MORE
